<p><dfn class="terminology">Method of Undetermined Coefficients</dfn>This method is used to find the particular solution. The procedure is as follows:(i) Assume a form of solution with some coefficients;(ii) Determine those coefficients.Usually, this method is for the cases that the non-homogeneous term is exponential-, sine-, cosine-functions or polynomials and further the homogeneous ODE is the one with constant coefficients.</p>
